Ah, I saw the change! Yeah, it's a lot to keep up with sometimes. You seem to be doing pretty well so far, though. And if you do slip up, I probably won't notice, since I've never even seen all of IAVMMCM, and what I have seen I've only seen once. I've really gotta get myself a dvd of that. <sigh>.

Anyway, I guess I should go work on some deleated scenes...

How come you've only seen some of it?!?!

It is probably my third favorite Muppet film of all time!!!

I've only seen some of it because the only chance I've ever had to see it was this past Thanksgiving. I saw everything up to Gonzo's line "on the most MISERABLE Christmas of MY LIFE" And then I had to turn it off because my family was (quite literally) dragging me away from the tv to go to my aunt's house for dinner. :mad: argh.......

So yes, I have unfortunately never seen the end. Very depressing, because I KNOW that I'm missing something BIG but... <sigh>.

Great, now I'm depressed. How am I supposed to finish writing this happy upbeat opening number if I'm depressed? You know there's a reason these scenes were deleated- they were too hard to write. But, I said I would... so I will... no guarantees on time frame... but I'll write them...

1.) I know we're all kind of in shock from Beau's incredibly shocking "Muppet Terror," but I can't stand seeing an utter lack of posts in the fanfic section, and I think we need to laugh a little.

2.) On the other hand, maybe we need to laugh a lot.

3.) These deleted scenes are a little more deleted than I thought, so...

4.) It's time for the Gag Reel!

If I knew how to use/insert the Muppet icons...

Lisa, that was great! The best one was the take in the diner with the Pinball Count reference. That made me laugh once. And then... Grover's line: "Show-off" made me laugh two times.

Mayhaps the blooper with Robin hiccupping should be broken into two different takes, once with Fozzie's cure and another with Janice's cure. That way, you could milk it the way they do with the Pixar films outtakes at the end of the film. Have a blooper in between and have every other gag be a different cure for Robin's hiccups suggested by the different Muppets. Heck, you could even work in a few suggestions from other Muppets out on SS round the production set.

But this was goooood.

Thought of another blooper!

On Sesame Street, take nine

Bert: Yeah, it's great to see you, Kermit-

Cookie Monster: Hiya Kermit!

Oscar: Oh, no, another cheerful face!

Big Bird: Hi, Kermit! How are you?

Elmo: Elmo is so happy to see you, Mr. Kermit

<A girl just a little over five feet tall with longish brown hair and bright blue eyes comes on screen>

TogetherAgain: Elmo, what are you doing here? I thought you were promoting "Tickle Me Elmo". I didn't write you into this scene.

Elmo: Oops! Elmo forgot about that! Sorry, everybody, Elmo's gotta go! <runs off>

TogetherAgain: Sorry about that, folks. Carry on. <walks off>

Snuffleupagus: Uh...

Kermit: What the heck was that?

Director: (off screen) Cut!

Funny... But unnecessary. Though now that you posted it...
Guess Kevin will have to bear the brunt of half the population hating his two most popular Muppet characters. Not sure I understand it with Clifford, having the benefit of watching him on JHH and MT and liking both performances. A little understood with Elmo what with the Elmo-centric episodes that get churned out, but he's a sometimes OK character.

Just hope they'd make a few small changes to EW so it'd be a bit more palateable.
